AMOREPACIFIC is wonderful Korean skincare company founded by Sung-Whan Suh. For over half a century, AMOREPACIFIC has pioneered technological developments to meet the highest standards of health and beauty, as demonstrated by the company’s establishment of it’s own research laboratory in 1954 – the first in the Korean cosmetics industry. Holding over 140 global patents in green tea and skin related technology they fuse cutting edge formulations with age old tradition of Asian botanicals to bring customers their supreme benefits.

AMOREPACIFIC’s MOISTURE BOUND Refreshing Hydra-Gel is a very light and yet super hydrating gel creme. It dissolves right away into the skin and leaves no greasy residue. It’s oil-free which is important for someone with oily or broken out skin. You just feel cool, moist and never tight. During the day, this gel provides great antioxidant protection. At night, you really feel the nutrients seeping into your pores replenishing all the lost vitamins from exposure to free radicals throughout the day! My skin definitely looked more vibrant when I woke each morning. This was probably due ginger extract which stimulates microcirculation in the skin. I love ginger! I also love that it stimulates Hyaluronic acid production improving skin’s ability to hold water, preventing dehydration. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! I used this every other day alternating with TIME RESPONSE Skin Renewal Gel Creme.

AMOREPACIFIC’s TIME RESPONSE Skin Renewal Gel Creme is supposed to minimize excess sebum production, which everyone with oily skin needs I think! This combo worked perfectly and really evened out my skin and left it feeling velvety smooth! I even noticed my pores shrunk in such a short amount of time! The website says this is “the ultimate skin transforming creme that corrects ALL signs of aging. Works on a genetic level to minimize wrinkles and sagging, restore skin’s radiance, repair the protective barrier and deeply hydrate.” I would have to agree with these statements! This cream is very unique and I’ve never seen my skin transform so fast! AMOREPACIFIC products are definitely worth the money in my opinion.

FYI- Both products are pretty heavy on fragrance though for those with sensitive noses. I personally like when I use products, and their smells remind me of distinct periods in my life. That may be getting a little too sentimental with my skincare though! Enough about me and more about these amazing products…

I love the AmorePacific Hydra Gel that one is AMAZING! But really prciey. I was curious about the Korres one but still have yet to try it. I LOVE gel-creams, but the last 2 times I’ve tried moisturizers with that consistency (Cerave and Kiehl’s), I’ve broken out SO badly for some reason so I’ve been a little hesitant.
